Groups go to court to improve bilingual studies – Austin, Texas
Tagged: bilingual, children, judge, LULAC, student“Leading Hispanic groups urged a federal judge Monday to order Texas to improve its bilingual education programs, arguing that 712,000 students with limited English skills – about one in six children in public schools – are failing more often than other students because of inaction by the state.
The civil rights groups, LULAC and GI Forum, asked U.S. District Judge William Wayne Justice to update the sweeping court order he issued 35 years ago that forced Texas to provide better education for limited-English students across the state.
